In the field of thoracic anesthesia, it is well-established practice that the insertion depth of left-sided double-lumen tube (LDLT) is achieved after checking its position via fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FOB). Several studies have shown positive correlation between body height (BH) and the optimal insertion depth of a LDLT. Each of these studies has developed a formula for proper insertion depth of the LDLT. In this study, we prospectively studied our patients whose tracheas were intubated correctly with LDLT using FOB confirmation and examined the optimal insertion depth of LDLT aiming at finding a formula suitable for our patients.
